The European Commission is preparing to introduce new rules for stablecoins, despite concerns from ECB representatives about a possible threat to the stability of the region's banking system in the face of market turmoil. It is planned to allow the use of tokens issued outside the EU, on a par with those approved on European markets. Against the background of these changes, Brussels and the ECB are discussing the creation of a digital euro currency that can strengthen Europe's financial autonomy. ECB President Christine Lagarde said that the digital euro will be able to reduce the region's dependence on external factors, while stablecoins pegged to the US dollar pose risks to monetary stability by redistributing deposits from traditional banks. She also pointed out that the stability of the value of such tokens is not guaranteed. At the same time, the U.S. Senate passed a bill obliging issuers of stablecoins to provide tokens with liquid assets, such as dollars or treasury securities, and to provide data on reserves. This could be an important milestone for the crypto industry, which supports the creation of clear regulation. Such assets, pegged to the dollar in a 1:1 ratio, are becoming a popular tool for crypto traders.
